I'd like to speak to this suggested amendment.
Out of full respect for what Mr. Moore has just proposed and after careful consideration, I'll have to speak against the amendment.
I would appreciate it if only these two individuals, these two witnesses, were the final deciders in enacting MAID on the part of the individual, but we know that there are other procedures that must be followed. We know that the witness, for example, does not assess whether or not somebody is eligible for MAID. We also know that the witness doesn't establish whether or not there has been undue pressure or influence on the person requesting MAID.
Because there are other steps in the process, other people who actually go through this process, I have to speak out against this motion and say that we keep it as originally outlined.
Thank you.
